From research brief to published article
Newsmill isn't just for aggregation. The Originals pipeline creates fresh, AI-researched articles from scratch. Define a topic, provide direction, and let AI handle the research and writing — then push the result through the same quality pipeline as your feed content.
Define your research
Start with a research brief. Provide a title, a short description of the angle you want, and target keywords. Specify the depth — a quick overview piece or an in-depth analysis with multiple perspectives.
The brief guides the entire generation process. Clear direction produces focused output. You control the topic, the angle, the scope, and the target audience — Newsmill handles the research and execution.
AI-powered research
Newsmill researches the topic automatically, gathering context, facts, and perspectives from across the web. The research phase collects relevant information, identifies key data points, and assembles a knowledge base for the writing phase.
Research results are structured and comprehensive — not just a list of search results, but synthesized information ready for article generation. The depth matches your brief: surface-level for quick takes, thorough for long-form content.
Configurable writers
Research results are sent to AI writers. Configure multiple writers with different prompt templates to produce varied content from the same research. One writer produces a formal news article, another produces an opinion piece, a third creates a short social-media-ready summary.
Each writer uses the same prompt template system as the feed rewriting engine. Choose the AI model, define the tone and structure, and produce multiple pieces of content from a single research brief. Maximize the value of every research investment.
Full pipeline integration
Original articles go through the same quality controls as feed content. After generation, articles pass through humanization and AI detection bypass, ensuring the output reads as naturally written human text.
Publishing works identically — push to WordPress, send via webhooks, or export as Markdown and HTML. The Originals pipeline and the Feed pipeline share the same output infrastructure, so your publishing workflow stays consistent regardless of content origin.
